WHAT A GREAT INTERVIEW! THAT'S WHY THEY ARE MY FAVORITE GUYS! - I have a Question: I'm running the only (as far as I know) Website for Anson and Don, and would like to add this Interview there. Is that ok?

I do not understand why people would tell me that they enjoy other shows about families growing up more than Happy Days. Happy days was a lot more realistic than all of these other ones. It was not always Mr. and Mrs. C. correcting Richie and Joanie. Once in a while Richie, Joanie, or the two of them had to correct Mr. and Mrs. C. Second of all, the show did not always have a happy ending. There was the episode where Richie missed his free throw that would have won it all for Jefferson High and some more episode like this. Happy Days has been my favorite television show for a long time. Even though I was born in the year of 1977 I really enjoy the show and still watch reruns. I think it makes a lot more sense than other show that came out before or after it. Please tell the cast that I said, "Hello and that I found my thrill on Blueberry Hill."

Sincerely,

Scott Prosser

Fantastic Interview. When Happy Days first aired my mother would not let us watch it. She was concerned about the Fonz.!!! We begged her to let us watch the show and she relented and it turned out to be one of my favorite shows. Thanks for the memories. Wishing you all the best.

I grew up on that show; even graduating high school the year it went off the air. I thought the show suffered quality-wise for a while when Ron and Don left, but that final season was excellent. There were several episodes showing how the characters were going to go on into adulthood. Tom was right when he mentioned that in the segment...they really took the time to get it right.

However, I'd LOVE to know why Anson Williams was NOWHERE to be seen in that final episode. I think he suffered the most with the departure of Ron and Don, and to have him not in the finale...well, it bugged me. I know..I need to get out more. ;-)

I actually had the opportunity to meet Anson, Erin, and Henry recently at the World of Wheels in Chicago. They are a great bunch of people. They were down to Earth and friendly. That Garry Marshall really had them all in check and doing other things behind the camera. They ALL turned out to be dynamic people. What a great part of our culture Happy Days was. It brings on great memories and fondness for sooo many.

Sometimes I wish I had Dish or Satellite so my 13 year old son could see some of the shows...like Happy Days, that I watched. It was a great show, & of course, cute as Ron is, "the Fonz" was my favorite. Thanx for reminding me of a great show in a what's now a crazy era!(I wish he could see more episodes of Ron's earlier part: we have a DVD of I think 3 episodes, & with todays' insanity, I think it's good for younger folks to see what life was like-mostly-back then. We even have a guy who works delivering propane here who's called Opie, because he resembles the character so much it's uncanny. He's also a sweetheart...)
And because my Dad was a stunt double years ago for Frank Sinatra, Gary Cooper & Cary Grant, I learned at a young age how hard life could be for actors. I admire their fortitude.

With the Happy Days segment, The Today Show spotlighted the ingredients for quality entertainment. Yes, the show was well conceived and crafted, but it endured because of the talent and "character" of the cast. In the midst of today's media frenzy & glitz, the Happy Days cast shines a light on what I value as entertainment and in life. The interview made me realize that in those Happy Days, "Hope"-was like Faith & Love, everyday experiences--but today, it really is audacious! Thank you all!!

enjoyed watching the Today show with the Happy Days cast as I did watching the Happy Days weekly shows when it was on TV. It was a wholesome show full of 'happy,wholesome,good,fun times'.
